Among horses, the horse one chooses as the best is the one whose nostrils are fully open and whose breath is fuller, which the horse shows in its expression in the eyes. A good horse shows vibrations by the quivering of its skin when its back is patted. It is not like a stone-like horse which takes one step after ten whips given on its back. In man in the same way that life can be seen which is termed in Hindustani Pani, which means "water." They say that a horse, or a man, has "a watery nature," which means a liquid nature, living, pliable; and this life breath gives to body and mind. |
